“The Equilume Cashel Light Mask is an incredible device that is an asset to the wellbeing of my competition horses. I prefer not to stable my horses and like them to be out in the paddock 24/7. Therefore they were never under lights before Equilume.
With the Equilume Light Masks, my horses look and feel amazing. Their coats are shining, I do not need to clip, and they feel incredible to ride!”
